Buzz off Wilbur, the Red Cloud was an excellent vessel. Any vessel
that faced those kind of sea conditions would have had trouble. Its
esay for you to second guess the decessions of a captain. You dont
know what happend out
there. Its a wonder she lasted that long in those conditions.

Dont second guess the choices that an experinced captain made in heavy
seas. You were not there!

Yeah, Wilbur. I'll bet you were surprised to see the Red Cloud crew
member who prompted the evacuation because of a sprained ankle, when
she walked without any sign of a limp in the news footage of their
rescue helicopter when it landed. You really had to be there!

How can you question her assessment of the injury, she's a nurse.
